Welcome to
Clear-Clarity Counselling Services
Gillingham, Kent
Hi, I’m Linda Thompson, a person-centred and couples counsellor.
Navigating our way through life can feel hard at times. It’s because of this I decided to open my practice Clear-Clarity Counselling Services based in Gillingham.
Just like my clients, I’ve had my fair share of difficulties and sorrow in life, and I took many wrong turns before finding the right one for me.
Finding Clarity
When emotions like anxiety or sadness take over, it can be easy to feel disconnected from others.
Sometimes, it can be challenging to fully understand what’s going on in our lives. Speaking with a trained counsellor can offer a new perspective and help us reassess our goals from a clearer more positive mindset.
I am fully qualified and insured.
I am also registered with British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy
Accredited Member of
Down To Earth Counselling
Clear-Clarity Counselling Services helps people from all walks of life across Gillingham and Medway.
I help people to take the first step in their journey of growth and self-awareness.
Some of them are grieving, some are navigating traumatic experiences like abusive relationships, and others just want to talk to a professional counsellor.
My counselling style is warm, down to earth and friendly. I like to help people resolve feelings that are holding them back, and to see them enjoy their lives again.
How Can I Help You?
I support people in all areas of their lives, including but not limited to:
- Abusive relationships
- Anxiety
- Bereavement

- Low mood
- Post traumatic stress
- Loss
- Trauma
- Self-Harm
- Low self-esteem

I also help couples through couple therapy.
Feeling anxious can trigger many emotions. These emotions can cause feelings of guilt, anger, depression, hopelessness, and confusion. Our emotions can have a major impact on our self-esteem and confidence.
I provide a safe, confidential, non-judgemental environment, to help you make sense of your feelings. I offer my clients warmth, and kindness and will listen to your story with empathy and understanding, to help you view things through a calmer and clearer lens.
Appointments
I offer one-hour face-to-face sessions at my practice in Medway, Kent, as well as one-hour online Zoom sessions.
Home visits are available, depending on circumstances.

Tips for lessening and controlling anxiety
Millions of people struggle with anxiety daily and are looking for ways to find relief. Learning to control anxiety is a long-term process – not something that can be completed overnight. But there are ways to fight your anxiety that can be integrated into your daily life.
New beginnings in life
Life is full of ups, downs, twists and turns, and new beginnings can mark the start of wonderful new chapters in our life. They can take various forms, such as moving, changing careers, having a family, retirement or embarking on a journey of personal growth and development.
Mindfulness for brain-fog and low mood
Some days it can feel hard to just ‘get on with things’ so much can get in the way of feeling OK. I struggle with this sometimes, especially if I have a lot on my mind, if I’m too busy, or if I have that awful night’s sleep of tossing and turning!
